Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Saliva
Mouthwash
COVID19
Interventions
Device: mouthrinse without bêta-cyclodextrin and citrox
Device: mouthrinse with bêta-cyclodextrin and citrox
Registration Number
NCT04352959
Lead Sponsor
Claude Bernard University
Brief Summary

Given the current lack of effective COVID-19 treatment, it is necessary to explore alternative methods to contain the spread of the infection, focusing in particular on its mode of transmission. The modes of person-to-person transmission of SARS-CoV-2 are direct transmission, such as sneezing, coughing, transmission through inhalation of small droplets, and transmission through contact, such as contact with nasal, oral and eye mucous membranes. SARS-CoV-2 can also be transmitted directly or indirectly through saliva. The use of antiviral mouthrinses may be used as adjunctive therapy.
